As a unique revitalization project in Glassboro, New Jersey, the 26-acre Rowan Boulevard project is being developed in a public/ private partnership between the Borough of Glassboro, Sora Holdings and Rowan University.

This new development is an essential part of the revival of various adjoining neighborhoods. The Rowan Boulevard project also promotes smart growth living by creating mixed-use buildings in a walkable community setting. The entire revitalization project encompasses 81 acres in downtown Glassboro, New Jersey, and will include a Student Housing Complex, Barnes & Noble® College Bookstore and The Whitney Center.

The Student Housing Complex, which spans approximately 311,000 square feet, was the first component of the Rowan Boulevard redevelopment.

The complex can be home to 884 students and features mostly large, four-bedroom, two-bathroom student apartments with kitchenettes, student lounges and study areas as well as an exercise room.

Also located in the heart of the project is the Barnes & Noble College Bookstore. This project is approximately 37,060 square feet and features a Starbucks® café.

The Whitney Center offers approximately 22,000 square feet of retail space adjacent to Rowan University. In addition to housing 280 students, the building is the new home for Rowan’s Honors College and encompasses approximately 8,000 square feet of university multi-function space.
